Republicans

It’s your typical round up of “Tea Party Patriots”, crazies, and, one can imagine, the occasional bigot.

The protests will include events on freeway overpasses and street protests as well as protests at the offices/town-halls of congressmen and in front of Government buildings. The organizers believe that Obama should be removed from office for many reasons, only a few of which are provided here.

They envision a national protest during the week of August 23rd. If you see any of these protesters in your area,please, please, please, share your photos here, or on ourFacebook page

Today, the Las Vegas Sun‘s Op-Ed page is calling for President Obama’s impeachment and encouraging support for Donald Trump in 2016 while, of course, comparing him to Ronald Reagan:

On the strength of this comparison, how do we not immediately impeach Obama and his anti-American agenda that hurts the middle class and not immediately adopt Trump’s vision of opening America’s energy spigots full blast, which would end this recession overnight?

As I see it, Trump is far and away ahead of any GOP candidate when it comes to taking maximum advantage of America’s untapped energy potential.

Thirty years ago, Ronald Reagan won a landslide re-election by touting America as the “shining city on a hill.” Well, as mythical as that was, Trump’s vision of making the U.S. the “energy capital of the world” is very much a potential reality.

All we have to do is let him do it, and ironically, it would fulfill Reagan’s “shining city on a hill” vision as well.

That didn’t take long. Contrary to what Boehner and the GOP leadership have been saying, it appears that impeachment is very much on the table and on the minds of their constituents.

Help Justify My Vote stop the madness. Please sign our petition. You have the vote, together, we have the power.

Representatives Jackie Speier and Carolyn Maloney in front of the Supreme Court this morning – “still fighting to get women into the Constitution 91 years after the ERA was introduced.”

Now, more than ever, we need a constitutional amendment to protect women from gender discrimination and decisions like Hobby Lobby.

Yesterday, it was reported that the unpopular Governor of Wisconsin, Scott Walker, is caught up in a campaign fundraising scheme that violates state and federal election laws. Partisan, activist judges may also have played a role in obstructing the investigation. In what can only be described as cronyism, Walker’s campaign has been accused of coordinating with special interest groups and Karl Rove – a violation of the one campaign finance law that is not ambiguous:

Underlying the two very different sets of rules for political candidates and outside groups is the principle that candidates cannot coordinate with the outside groups that work on their behalf.

In an obvious display of panic, Gov. Walker (and his campaign?) just made a $250K ad buy to “blame the media” for his troubles. Sound familiar? Sure it does, it’s straight out of the Karl Rove Playbook.

As they are now both named in this scandal, the question becomes this: Will Walker throw Rove under the bus, or will Rove throw Walker under the bus?

Ever notice when a man wants to discredit a woman, he often refers to her as “crazy”, “hysterical”, must have “brain damage”? Unbelievably, in the year 2014, in the United States of America, we have yet one more desperate attempt by Karl Rove, trying to diminish Hillary Clinton, of all people, by insinuating that she might have brain damage.

Interesting that he can’t think of a single policy position of Clinton’s that he would like to challenge. He also seemingly has a different standard for men than for women. We all remember when Bush “fell on a pretzel” and cut his face. Does anyone remember Mr. Rove’s deep concern for the president’s fragile mental state?

It’s no wonder Republicans have a problem with women voters. They just don’t believe that they have the mental capacity to be taken seriously.

The Republicans want you to know that they don’t have any ideas to advance the future of the country, but they sure know how to throw a tantrum. We’ve seen this before. This has been their strategy since 2008. Maybe longer. In fact, if anyone can remember the last time the Republicans came up with a good idea, please make a note of it in the comment section below

The question is: Will the same voters who fall for this ruse, fall for it again? Obviously, the Republicans think so. What has happened to these Americans that they are so terrified to think for themselves? Probably it’s easier to pitch a fit than it is to form an opinion.

Bend over, here it comes again.
